  1. Resident Evil 5

    WHATTT.
  2. Resident Evil 5

    I need to do exactly this shit with you people once RE6 hits and I have an online console.
  3. Resident Evil 5

    I guess Toblix like his Jill sandwich yeaahhhhh
  4. Resident Evil 5

    Haymaker to the boulder! Ah, the second flamethrower boss. I don't recall having much trouble with that, but the Wesker fight was annoying as all hell. Especially getting the thingamabob out of Jill's chest. Gah.
  5. Resident Evil 5

    The flamethrower boss from the beginning? He was awesome and pretty easy once you figure out the routine. I think you'd get a really different experience playing this with a controller though, it's pretty smooth then.
  6. Why morality systems are a mistake

    Yeah man, I'd love to! Do I need to use a CMS to input it myself or are there crafty editors willing to copy-paste it from above? The formatting is straightforward enough. All we need is a graphic.
  7. Nintendo finally released an update for the downloadable NES games on the 3DS, enabling people to create save states wherever they want. So that finally makes those tough-as-nails games a little more playable for modern audiences. I've been playing a little of the original Metroid and even that game's a triumph of atmosphere. Super Metroid is of course better in every conceivable way, but Metroid has always been quality. The prime series was very fun. And I really enjoyed Metroid Zero, the remake of the first one. I've yet to play Fusion, but I will.
  8. Rolling with the Pope is also, still, a terrific title.
  9. Why morality systems are a mistake

    Yessssssss.
  10. Why morality systems are a mistake

    I haven't played Dragon Age, so my knowledge on that might be a real lack here. I don't expect a lot of people here who don't feel exactly the same way, this topic has just been on my mind a lot over the years (hence the example of Starcraft II which is already 'old'). Today I had a flash of inspiration to write it down, and saddle you with it
  11. Why morality systems are a mistake

    If only I had a video gaming site to post this stuff on!
  12. Fund Tim Schafer's next game YOURSELF!

    I can now confirm my shit didn't bounce, so I am a happy official contributor!
  13. Obligatory comical YouTube thread

  14. Etrian Odyssey 4 is a thing

    I know people who love this. For my tastes, EO is a little too grindy and too much about random battles, but conceptually I can only give this game a big thumbs up for its balls-out hardcoreness and willingness to alienate a big chunk of audience just to super please another.
  15. Fund Tim Schafer's next game YOURSELF!

    It's such a joyous thing! Pity about the poorly behaving audience in the live stream, but that's easy to ignore.
  16. Wasteland 2

    Postapocalypsism doesn't tickle me in games, but I'd plunk down for LBA3. The world needs another dose of weird, French, optimistic gaming.
  17. V The Elder Scrolls

    Fighting is a big part of the game... in dungeons at least, and in various storylines. In the wild you get attacked pretty regularly. However, the simulations running in towns are such that you could roleplay just living there and going about your business. Alternatively, hire mercenaries to deal with the fighting.

    I have maxed out my card completely to back both Double Fine and Idle Thumbs. I'd be pretty pissed if both pledges bounced
  19. Fund Tim Schafer's next game YOURSELF!

    The graphic and audio at the end of that video are just perfect I used a 3V VISA card myself, but I didn't pledge an extra Dollar. That was completely new information I learned just minutes ago. So, maybe I'm screwed, but also maybe not.
  20. Fund Tim Schafer's next game YOURSELF!

    There is no i in team, but there is an i... in meatpie.
  21. Unnecessary Comical Picture Thread

    No, that's the thing he uses to cattleprod consoles.
  22. Unnecessary Comical Picture Thread

    Beep bloop beep!
  23. Fund Tim Schafer's next game YOURSELF!

    Since the budget for Grim Fandango was 3m, should they breach it it stands to reason... Grim Fandango 2 confirmed
  24. Idle Twits

    @HeerRood here. I had my account for a couple of years but it started gathering dust. Then, yesterday, suddenly Toblix started following me. Resurrection followed.
